Swift headed for big role in Lions offense

Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Anthony Lynn and assistant head coach/running backs coach Duce Staley praised running back D’ANDRE SWIFT on Wednesday as a “three-down back”. Swift led the Lions with 10 touchdowns as a rookie despite missing three games, and the team appears to be counting on him to play a bigger role in 2021. Staley said that Swift has “special traits” that should allow him to be a 25-touch-a-game back, with a role in both the passing game and the running game. Fantasy owners take note.
